Is dental implantation painful

Yes, dental implantation is usually painful but its degree is determined by the patient’s ability to tolerate it. During the dental implantation procedure, the patient will not feel any pain, only some pricking due to the anesthesia. After the procedure is over, the patient may feel some pain after the anesthesia wears off, so the doctor prescribes painkillers afterwards to relieve the pain and antibiotics to reduce inflammation in the area surrounding the implanted tooth. The pain gradually subsides until it finally disappears, and if it persists for more than two weeks, a doctor should be consulted.
